Chapter 367

Time passed unknowingly, I straightened my slightly sore back and looked at the clock hanging on the wall.
It was already past eight o’clock.
But Quentin and the others still hadn’t arrived.
I furrowed my brow, wondering whether to give Quentin a call to remind him.
It is also possible that there was traffic on the way at that point.
Hesitating, my phone suddenly rang.
It was Quentin who called.
I hurriedly answered the call.
As soon as the phone was answered, Quentin’s apologetic voice came through, saying, “Ralda, I’m sorry, but Kimora had something come up last minute and can’t make it…”
“Oh,” I asked somewhat dazedly, “Why didn’t you mention it earlier? I’ve been waiting here for almost two hours.”
I’m sorry, Ralda. She just called me and said there was a sudden emergency at home.
She also asked me to apologize to you on her behalf.
Ralda, don’t be angry, and don’t blame her. Kimora is a very nice person. She is very sorry that
she couldn’t come. She was crying on the phone just

“Is that so?” I asked without much emotion.
Quentin was anxious: “It’s true, Ralda. Kimora didn’t mean to stand you up. Please don’t be mad at her, okay? I’m begging you.”
It seems that Quentin really liked the girl named Kimora.
I looked up and smiled, saying, “I wasn’t mad at her, it’s okay, we can still make plans next time.”
“Are you really not angry?” Quentin’s voice was cautious on the other end of the phone.
I said seriously, “Really, the person you like, I also like, and the person you like must be the best.”
“I’m glad you’re not angry. You scared me. I was really afraid you would be angry.”
“No problem, I’ve just been waiting in this restaurant for an hour or two, I have nothing to do when I go back.”
Actually, I felt a little unhappy when that girl stood me up like that.
I felt that she didn’t value this meeting very much, so she didn’t value Quentin either.
But in the face of Quentin’s pleas and flattery, I couldn’t get angry.
I just hope that girl really liked Quentin, otherwise, Quentin would be so heartbroken.
“Ralda, have you eaten anything? It’s already this late,” Quentin asked with concern.

I looked at the empty table and said with a smile, “Had dinner and ordered some dessert.”
That’s good, Ralda. This time, I really did wrong you.
“Next time, when I have made up my mind, I will treat you to a big meal.”
“No problem, we don’t talk about these things as a family. It’s getting late, I have to go back, you should rest early too.”
“Okay, be careful on your way back. I’ll come to see you later.”
“Okay.”
I hung up the phone and sat on the chair blankly, feeling empty in my heart for a moment.
The protest in my stomach grew louder.
I sighed silently and carried the gift I bought, walking outside the private
room.
However, as soon as I opened the door to the private room, a familiar figure was passing by in front of me.
It was Reynaldo.
I stiffened all over and stared at him blankly.
He glanced at me indifferently, with no expression on his face, as if he didn’t know me, and then continued walking with the people accompanying him.
It wasn’t until their group entered the adjacent private room that I came to
my senses.
What’s going on?

How come Reynaldo is here?
Did I just see that right? Was that Reynaldo?
